#LifeEsidimeni: Five of the most unbelievable things Qedani Mahlangu said

Did the former MEC move from playing the blame game to playing the victim?

The woman who said she was trained to “detonate a hand grenade and dismantle an AK-47” as an anti-apartheid activist proved she was as adept at evading questions under cross-examination as she might have been dodging bullets in the struggle.

Arbitration proceedings, which continue on Tuesday, are set to uncover how 143 former Life Esidimeni mental health patients lost their lives after being moved to nongovernmental organisations during her tenure as Gauteng health MEC.
